About Nicole
Biography
In every criminal matter, there is an enormous amount at risk. Often times, it is a person's very freedom that hangs in the balance. I will leave no stone unturned to protect my clients and to defend their interests whatever the situation and whatever the obstacles. I take every case very seriously and go to great lengths to spend extensive time getting to know my clients. My primary goal is to first build a relationship of trust with each client. I understand that negotiating through the legal process is frightening and confusing, especially if someone has never been involved in the court system before. It is my responsibility to make certain that each client has a full understanding of the court proceedings so that each person feels that his or her voice has been heard.
I have been practicing law for almost 15 years in the District, Superior and Probate and Family courts in Essex, Middlesex and Suffolk counties and throughout the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. I firmly believe that an effective advocate must not only know the law but must know and be known in all of the local courts. I have spent many years developing a reputation for being a fierce, tenacious advocate for my clients, a reputation of which I am very proud.
